Perhaps Tommo was telling us the truth about future games. Maybe they will actually make bona fide NGX-specific games utilizing the beefy hardware. That description mentioned a 2D+3D graphics core; can we see some 3D gaming in the coming months?

I wouldn't read too much into the specs. They probably just went with readily available on the shelf components. Wouldn't make sense to track down older out of date stuff just for the fact neo emulation doesn't require much CPU power.

Just catching up on this, so there are no tattletales built into the system (eg: tape, foil) that if you break by opening it, Tommo would automatically know if you did?

Was also gonna try a dd of Ninja Masters on my Mac. But it doesn't even recognize there's a partition to mount. Almost like the partition table is something else or intentionally "corrupted"

From what I could figure according to linux it doesn't even have a partition table, just raw data. There was a windows program mentioned earlier (FTK Manager) that allowed digging into mine, but it was a dead end at \000001~\file. Though mine might be corrupted (since it's no longer playable), perhaps more success would be found with a working card like yours.

Yeah, looks like a rom set. Seems to tie plain english game names to short names kind of like Final Burn would launch Fatal Fury 3 by you using fatfury3 as the rom name. Also kind of looks like default settings too. Like # of credits, difficulty, button mapping for any particular game.

Curious, anyone try using fdisk on a linux machine to inspect Ninja Masters to see if there is a partition table of some type?

Anyone DD the system SD yet? I'm itching to crack into this. Been reading like mad. Squashfs seems like the filesystem type. Should be mountable with the right extensions. As soon as we can read/browse the filesystem, the sooner we get more emus on here. From everything I'm reading, the X is just a beefy CPU dingoo. Which is pretty well documented. This should be easy.

Lectoid sounded as though he planned to open it back up this weekend, so I suppose he's the best bet.
